For those of you new to My Fire Community, it is a place for ad hoc groups like us to share information and work products with each other. It allows us to submit items that will be retained for review by others.
The Eastern Fuel Modeling group met in Columbus, OH on December 12-14 and began the process of classifying eastern fuels according the fire behavior fuel models with the intention of developing a reference guide for users working in the Eastern Area. Though not yet completed, one of the first postings will be the set of fuel communities and what models we applied to them.
We will be working this season to develop photos of each of these "communities", as well as refining classifications, and adding some detailed descriptions and justifications.
Feel free to request an invitation.
